Xu An held up the halberd in his hand high, and pulled it forward with all his strength. Behind him were three hundred guards and five hundred yellow angels, all of a sudden, followed by tens of thousands of yellow scarves all moving forward together.

They raised their long spears, shouldered their halberds, straightened their swords and shields and followed Xu An and swept towards Jinyang City. The iron armor was clanging, the swords and guns were like forests, and the waves were surging.

Chapter 116 Chapter of Jinyang ([-])

In the offensive and defensive battle of Jinyang City, with Xu An's joining, the entire Yellow Turban Army under the city went completely crazy.

There were 500 Han troops defending the eastern city, but Zhang Yi later took [-] soldiers to the southern city.

Coupled with the continuous battle casualties, the Han army defending Dongcheng now has only a thousand or so people. leather armor, and spears.

After these strong men passed simple training, they were taken up to the city wall by the soldiers of the Han army and formed an army formation to meet the Yellow Turban army.

It's a bit like the Warring States Period in Japan, the feeling of samurai and ashigaru, the lower-level samurai fought with the spear array composed of ashigaru.

Then relying on the advantage of the city wall, the large number of defense equipment on the city, and the generous rewards from the Taiyuan royal family, this barely resisted the continuous offensive of the Yellow Turban Army.

"Junior Sima, look!"

Sima Wangchen of the Han army heard the shouts from the housekeepers, but he didn't need to be woken up by others, he had already seen the big yellow banner in front of him.

"Crazy, crazy!"

Wang Chen looked at the crazy-looking Yellow Turban Army under the city and took half a step back in disbelief. When the big khaki banner got closer and closer, the entire Yellow Turban Army under the Jinyang East City rushed forward like crazy , Those various flags appeared on the ladder like mushrooms after the rain.

Not to mention the innumerable banners of Shichang relying on, team leaders, garrison commanders, and military officers, there are even two army Sima flags.

"Concentrate the bed crossbows, trebuchets, and shoot in the direction of the 'Moth Thief' banner!"

"promise!"

The sergeant took the order and left in a hurry, but Xu An was not a reckless man. He knew that the position of the big banner was obvious, so he specially chose the lower half of the east city wall to attack.

Therefore, the bed crossbow that can shoot at him is close to zero. As for the trebuchet, the hit rate of trebuchets in this era can only depend on God's will.

"Tuk!"

After the three trebuchets were adjusted in direction, under the control of Lishi, the boulders on the machines were suddenly thrown out.

The stone pierced the blue sky, but it was far from Xu An's. The nearest piece just passed over Xu An's head and fell on the ground far away from Xu An.

Even the stone catapults of the Han army did not accomplish any meritorious service, and the Yellow Turban Army regarded Xu An as Huang Tian's incarnation. These stones all avoided where Xu An was.

"kill!!!"

Li Heng climbed up the city wall again. At this time, there was no one from the Li family beside him, and the soldiers who followed him were just ordinary Yellow Turban soldiers.

His voice was already hoarse, but he was still shouting loudly forward.

"madman!"

Wang Chen spat fiercely, clenched the ring head knife tightly in his hand, his legs were trembling a little, he, the army commander, was actually just relying on his family's prestige to get into the official position.

Jinyang is the seat of Bingzhou in the Han Dynasty. There has been no war for a long time, and it is almost impossible to have a war. He thought that he could spend his life in peace like this. Who would have thought that the Yellow Turban bandits would come to the city this day.

The heavy panting caused Wang Chen's chest to rise and fall violently.

"call out----"

In Wang Chen's ears, that sharp scream was like a signal to remind him to die.

In front of my eyes is a boundless army of yellow turbans all over the mountains, moth thieves, moth thieves, just like the imperial court said, like moths to a flame.

Looking back, the majestic Jinyang City is full of tidy streets and houses of all kinds, but the bustling market is empty at this time, all because of the combination of heaven and earth.

This Jinyang City has been Wang Chen's home for more than 30 years. His wife and parents are all in the city, so he has no reason to retreat.

Wang Chen pulled out the ring sword at his waist with a "chuckle", stepped on the railing of the tower with one foot, and shouted loudly: "My family and I are all in the city, and there is no way out in this battle. Everyone, follow me!" Kill the thief!"

After saying that, Wang Chen gritted his teeth, turned around and walked down the tower, followed by dozens of doormen behind him.

……

Although the Han army tried their best to stop them, they still couldn't stop the continuous Yellow Turban Army. The corpses of dead soldiers almost spread a layer on the city wall.

When the tiger-patterned battle flag appeared on the ladder, the yellow angels, who were like wild beasts, instantly defeated the Han army who were still stubbornly resisting.

Those gun formations composed of strong men were simply vulnerable to the impact of a large number of fearless and heavily armored yellow angels.

And those soldiers of the Han army who tried to resist quickly fell under the swords of these yellow angels.

The loss of the Wengcheng in the east city of Jinyang caused the Han army to lose its defensive support point. The archers of the Yellow Turban Army quickly passed the ladder and came to the occupied city wall. Under the command of the officer, they formed a formation behind the female wall.

The archers of the Yellow Turban Army above the city poured their feather arrows at the Han army below the city, making it impossible for the Han army to gather effectively and counterattack this section of the city wall from below.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The battle drums of the Han army sounded violently, never before in such a hurry, perhaps the most dangerous moment for Jinyang City has arrived.

Xu An's big banner has arrived at the ladder under the Dongcheng city.

Zhang Yi, who had just withdrawn his troops from Nancheng and returned to the city, also heard the rapid drumming of Dongcheng. He had informed Wang Chen before attacking that if there was an emergency, he would beat the drum in a hurry.

problem occurs!

"Follow me to support Dongcheng!"

Zhang Yi didn't dare to be negligent, he twitched his horse's stock violently, and rushed out first.

"Ugh-"

The desolate horn sounded again, and the soldiers who had just returned to the city after a fight in the southern city stood up one after another, and followed Zhang Yi in the direction of the eastern city.

Sima Wangchen of the Han Army finally arrived at the city wall occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, he was a bit late after all.

At this time on the city wall, the Yellow Turban Army is reorganizing the army. The teams of yellow angels in heavy armor and holding swords and shields are forming an array. More soldiers are rushing to the city, and even the big khaki banner Already appeared on the ladder.

Wang Chen looked around, the surrounding Han army and those temporarily recruited young men all showed terrified expressions on their faces. If it wasn't for his own troops coming here, and because of his identity, these soldiers would have fled long ago up.

"The amount of reward for killing thieves will be increased tenfold. If anyone dies in battle, their family members and my royal family will support them!"

With his sword in front of him, Wang Chen yelled loudly at the soldiers around him, at this moment he didn't have any intentions in his heart anymore.

Just as he was speaking, the big khaki banner also fell on the city wall, and Xu An jumped down from the ladder with a halberd in his hand, meeting Wang Chen's eyes.

And the yellow angels on the city wall have also completed their formation.

"call out--"

The sharp wooden whistle blew again, and the yellow angel with a sword and shield strode forward amidst the whistle.

Chapter 117 Entering the City!

The soldiers around Wang Chen became less and less, less and less, he mechanically waved the weapon in his hand, the scarlet blood flowed into his eyes along the edge of his helmet, more and more khaki flags , more and more military flags approached his direction.

Blood flowed from Wang Chen's abdomen, where he was stabbed by a halberd led by a Yellow Turban army. Although the thick iron armor blocked the halberd to a certain extent, the sharp tip of the halberd still opened a hole in his abdomen .

Wang Chen pressed half of his body on the halberd in his hand. He put the halberd on the ground, and tried his best to support his body so as not to fall. He staggered back to the wall, leaning his body against the wall. Bricks on the city wall.

The scarlet and thick blood made it almost difficult for Wang Chen to open his eyes. What he saw in front of his eyes was only blood. What he didn't know was that the Han army that could still stand on this section of the city wall was left alone.

The disciples who followed Wang Chen had all died under the blade of the Yellow Turban Army, and fulfilled their promise to the Wang family.

Those temporary recruits were the first to collapse, and their collapse also caused the collapse of others.

The sergeants of the Yellow Turban Army who occupied the East City Tower turned the winch that controlled the city gate. With the winch being pushed, the tall city gate of Jinyang East City suddenly opened, and outside the city was the Yellow Turban Army that had been waiting for strict control.

Thousands of yellow turban soldiers shouted loudly and marched forward in unison. They rushed into the corridor of the city gate like a wave. At this time, the Wengcheng had already been occupied by the yellow turban army.

The two city gates of Wengcheng were wide open, and there was no longer any resistance on the upper and lower sides of Wengcheng City. The Han army who had been guarding at the gates and corridors had already been expelled by the archers on the city.

The towering khaki banners were flying over the top of Jinyang East City at this time, and the red flags were thrown out of Jinyang City, and replaced by khaki flags, the color of the flags was no different from the loess on the ground , but at this time it is flying over the majestic city of Jinyang City.

Standing on the tower of Dongcheng City, Xu An knew that the battle was not over. In a big city like Jinyang City, and it was the seat of a state, the Han army would never give up easily.

However, relying on the city wall, the Han army could not stop the Yellow Turban Army under his command. Fighting on flat ground, without the advantages of defensive equipment and terrain, the Yellow Turban Army's offensive would only be smoother.

On the streets in the distance, the defeated Han army from the East City had already begun to regroup, trying to fight like a cornered beast.

The sound of the war drums of the Han army in the Eastern City has disappeared, replaced by the sound of wooden whistles and horns of the Yellow Turban Army. This is the Yellow Turban Army preparing for the attack.

Zhang Yi's heart trembled when he heard the sound of the war drums in Dongcheng stopped abruptly.

"Shuzi mistaken me!"

Zhang Yi was anxious and angry, and couldn't help yelling at Wang Chen, but the east city was already broken, even if Wang Chen was dragged out to whip his corpse, it would be of no avail.

"Zhao Qi, Sun Fu."

Zhang Yi returned to his horse and galloped in the queue of the Han army, pointing out two soldiers.

"Subordinates are here!"

When the two Han soldiers heard Zhang Yi's call, they immediately responded and rode out from the queue.

"Both of you, bring two hundred sergeants each, and another five hundred strong men. Hurry to the granary and arsenal. You would rather burn them than leave them to the 'moth thieves'!"

"promise!"

The two looked at each other, both were shocked, but they still surrendered.

Zhang Yi closed his eyes slightly, looking at the two people leaving, with a dazed expression, he muttered to himself: "Unexpectedly, during my term of office, Jinyang would fall into the hands of thieves, I, Zhang Yi, am truly ashamed of the Son of Heaven... "

"call out----"

The piercing whistle sounded again in Dongcheng. Zhang Yi knew that it was the whistle of the Yellow Turban Army's attack. After a short rest, the Yellow Turban Army marched towards Jinyang City again.

Looking back, he saw the bewildered faces of his soldiers, but what he didn't know was that his current expression was as bewildered as these soldiers.

Zhang Yi exhaled a cloud of turbidity, turned his horse's head and walked towards the central area of ​​Jinyang City. Although the walls of Jinyang City had fallen, even so, he could not give up easily. Shed the last drop of blood.

……

More and more Yellow Turban soldiers are pouring into Jinyang City. With the lessons learned from the past few times, almost no one dares to trespass on the houses. After all, the law enforcement teams led by the Yellow Turban Army alchemists follow the sides of each village. These alchemists don't have any human feelings at all.

The Yellow Turban Army in the North City also received rushing aid from the Yellow Turban Army in the East City. The Yellow Turban Army besieged the two places on the city wall and below the city, and soon drove out all the Han troops on the city wall.

The gate of Jinyang North City was opened, and before the defeated Han army reorganized its defense, Xu Huang had already charged into the city with a large group of cavalry.

Those Han troops who tried to resist all fell under Xu Huang's long ax without exception.

Xu An also finally received the news from Nancheng. Gong Du returned to rescue in time and saved Wang Ren's trilogy, but the loss was quite serious. Nancheng originally had more than 3000 sergeants in Liuqu, but now there are only a thousand survivors. .

Although Xu An underestimated Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi also underestimated Xu An's Yellow Turban Army and Xu An.

The price Xu An underestimated Zhang Yi was the loss of more than [-] soldiers from Nancheng, while Zhang Yi lost the entire city of Jinyang.

……

"kill!"

The shouts of killing on the streets became more and more intense, and the Han army who had lost the protection of the city wall could not face the wolf-like Yellow Turban army directly.

Under the wave after wave of continuous offensives by the Yellow Turban Army, the Han army could only fight and retreat. If the streets were not relatively narrow compared to the army, if it were in the wilderness, thousands of Han troops would have been slaughtered long ago. Cleaned up.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the soldiers of the two armies did not eat, especially the soldiers of the Han army. They had hardly had time to eat since they fought in the early morning.

The Yellow Turban Army's offensive slowed down at this time. They carried dry food with them and had a large army. They could let some soldiers eat first under the premise of ensuring the offensive.

The Han army, which was almost exhausted, retreated steadily under the offensive of the Yellow Turban Army. Even if Zhang Yi went into battle in person, it would be difficult to resist the offensive of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turbans from the North City had also entered the city, and were heading towards the central area of ​​Jinyang City from various streets. The young men recruited temporarily had already fled.

Most of the Han army in the city had completely lost contact with Zhang Yi, and the yellow turbans of all ministries moved forward like crazy, separating these sergeants from the troops behind them.

After all, Zhang Yi was old, and he showed fatigue after repeated battles.

The fall of the city wall was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the morale of the defenders. If Zhang Yigui hadn't been the governor of Bingzhou and was still fighting on the front line, the Han army beside him might have become a member of the defeated army.

Chapter 118 Looting

Outside the government office, there was another sound of messy footsteps.

A civil official boldly looked out through the window, and saw another group of yellow scarf archers with long workers coming at a fast pace. There are exits erected everywhere, forest-like spears stand behind the shield, and knights coming and going gallop on the street.

The clerk still had lingering fears after withdrawing his gaze. He looked at Zhang Yi who was resting beside the pillar, and tried to persuade him: "Master, now that the 'moth thief' is powerful, it is better to withdraw from Jinyang temporarily and return to the north to transfer to the north." Soldiers."

Zhang Yi didn't turn his head, squinted at the clerk and sneered disdainfully: "Are all the disciples of the Guo family in Taiyuan so timid?"

The civil official blushed, but he did not refute Zhang Yi's words after all.

Zhang Yi didn't pay attention to the clerk anymore, he stood up and frowned and looked into the distance. It had been a long time, but he didn't see smoke, dust or fire.
